Aaaaaaaaand, Other!Boss has now been told. Much more satisfying conversation, because THIS is the person I am most specifically getting away from.
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
YAY!
I am SO EXCITED to go to the dentist this spring, you guys. My gums don't bleed at all when I floss now, so I have high hopes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just noticed that it's already the 29th. If this was February it'd be March.

Thrive to spite them
I have to call my new dentist and schedule the ICON treatment (non drilling way to treat cavitities) and some sort of laser perio treatment for my gum issues.
Previous dentist (who I saw once and totally MISSED the cavity that led to my tooth breaking 2 days after my cleaning) told me "your gums are fine!" which was a huge sign that this dentist is Not Good. No dentist has ever said that. Unfortunately none of these treatments are covered with insurance so it will be more expensive but no drilling. I can get on board with that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I wonder if I could ask for the blanket when I get a cleaning.
That's a great idea. I don't particularly have dental anxiety but I love hearing about dentists that try to accommodate their patients who do.
Yay, Jess!
You just blew my mind, tommyrot.

Maybe I'll spend the week in-between jobs catching up on dentist/dr appointments. That would be very mature of me. #dontwanna

I have to floss diligently now because I've developed a gap between molars and bits of food get uncomfortably lodged there. I actually think I need to buy a bulk amount of floss so I can have it with me everywhere at all times.

I may have to seize the cat.

I'm still finding it very odd not to need to floss where the little bits of my wisdom teeth that were poking out were. It's so weird back there.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Sue, I love the dental floss picks. You don't need a mirror and it's easy to stash them in your purse or desk.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
(Congrats on the good meeting, Drew!) --voice from the recent past.
Our dentist broke a leg rather spectacularly in a windsurfing accident. Then late last year he shattered an elbow, we're not sure how. His patients have been referred to other practices. I'm not entirely persuaded we shouldn't just find a less clumsy dentist.
